Predator 3D Blu-ray - Anyone buying?

[j97e1]

Hi all.

Was curious if anyone will be buying this, or pre-ordered it already?
Also, is anyone interested in the Limited Edition Predator Head Case bundle with only 500 being made?

If it's just a 3D version of the DNR mess that is the current release, I'm passing. I have the first release and I'm happy with that.

 

[Jameson Rook]

I have the horrible DNR version and I DEMAND a proper transfer instead of a 3D edition. Ughh!

 

[Darth Waller]

Get the original release. It's grainy, but it's authentic and awesome.

 

[Jaycepticon]

Any extra's in this one? I only have the bare bones DVD before the one with the Hot Toys figure on the cover.

The original grainy version is great however I do like the Ultimate Hunter blu ray release. OK the jungle isn't as grainy but the Predator does look fantastic, especially the face reveal scene. I've never seen him look so real.

Nope.

What's 'DNR' ?

Digital Noise Reduction.

There's no chance a straight to video 3D conversion is going to be good

Department of Natural Resources. Preds hate that.

Looks like the new 3D blu-ray *might* include a brand new 4K 2D transfer as well: https://www.hometheaterforum.com/topic/325143-predator-3d-coming-to-blu-ray-in-december/

I'll be interested in reading reviews of this release.

 

[Jaycepticon]

When's this coming out? I don't see it on PO on Amazon.

Actually it's now being commented on in that very same thread I linked to that the new transfer is WORSE than the previous DNR abomination. Ugh.

Don't have a 3D TV but would love to see what this turns out like.

What's all the ******ing about the Ultimate Edition? Looks good to me.


Is this thing life size?...

Dreads look better than the P2 Maquette!


What's with Amazon using the standard movie reviews?
I want to know about the 3D version and the Limited Edition head. Think everyone knows about the film

I have a 3d TV and try to get all the 3d releases. Did pre-ordered this. The head is not 1:1, judging from the size if the base ( which supposed to be roughly the size of a BR box, but still, with only 500 made, and just the cool factor, I got tempted.

As far as the DNR release - I like it. Maybe because till then all I had was a crappy VHS copy, so the BR was a refreshing change, I dunno.

If it sucks - There is always someone out there who will buy it off me

I was very happy with the 'Ultimate Hunter Edition'.
Yeh they looked a bit waxy but it was a clean, crisp image.

You got a sig
